The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 2,500, brand new and sealed. It carries up to 85W over USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 into the magnetic MagSafe 2 port on MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models from 2012 to 2017. The 2m nylon braided cord reaches from a wall socket to a sofa or meeting table. Mascom International sells the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable at our store in Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, with pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya.
Designed for owners of older MacBooks, the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable fixes a familiar problem. The original charger frays at the neck, the replacement brick is hard to find, and the laptop still works perfectly. Lawyers in Upper Hill, accountants, writers and university students at Strathmore and USIU keep these machines for documents, email and eCitizen or KRA filings. With this cable, one USB-C charger can power the MacBook and also charge a phone, so you carry a single brick instead of two.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that stock unbranded MagSafe copies with thin cords, Mascom International carries the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable from a maker known for its cables and chargers. Buyers throughout Kenya report that a braided cord lasts far longer than the rubber neck of the original charger. The cable needs a USB-C PD charger of suitable wattage, and compatible chargers are sold separately at Mascom International. Visit our Kimathi Street store to test the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable on your own MacBook before you pay.
Common Questions About the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable
What is the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable price in Kenya?
The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable costs KSh 2,500, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the 2m cable and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. It does not include a wall charger, so plan for a USB-C Power Delivery charger if you do not already own one. Delivery is pay-on-arrival in all 47 counties, so you pay by cash or M-Pesa only once the parcel is in your hands.
Which MacBook models work with the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable?
The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable fits MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models from 2012 to 2017 that use the slim MagSafe 2 port. That includes the 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Air and the Retina MacBook Pro models of that period. It does not fit pre-2012 MacBooks with the wider original MagSafe port, nor newer models with MagSafe 3 or USB-C charging. If you are unsure, send us your model number on WhatsApp and we will confirm before you order.
What charger do I need for the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable?
You need a USB-C Power Delivery charger that matches your MacBook's original adapter rating. MacBook Air models shipped with a 45W charger, the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro with a 60W charger, and the 15-inch model with an 85W charger. A USB-C PD charger at or above that rating charges at full speed through the cable's 85W ceiling. A weaker charger may charge slowly or only hold the battery level. Compatible USB-C PD chargers are sold separately at Mascom International.
Can I charge my MacBook from a power bank during KPLC outages?
Yes, the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable works with a USB-C power bank that supports laptop-level Power Delivery output. That keeps a MacBook running through KPLC blackouts, long matatu or bus rides to Kisumu, and field days far from a socket. Check that the power bank lists 45W or higher USB-C PD output, plus higher for a 15-inch MacBook Pro. A small phone power bank rated around 20W will not keep up with a working laptop.
How does the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable compare with the original MagSafe 2 power adapter?
The original MagSafe 2 power adapter is a charger brick with a fixed cord, so when the cord frays at the connector the whole unit needs replacing. The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable separates the two: a replaceable braided cable plugs into any suitable USB-C PD charger. Pick the original adapter if you want a single dedicated brick and can find a genuine one. Pick the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable if you already own a USB-C laptop or phone charger, or want a longer cord.
Is the magnetic connector safe if someone trips over the cable?
Yes, the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable uses a magnetic MagSafe 2 tip that pulls free when the cord is yanked sideways. Your MacBook stays on the desk instead of crashing to the floor. That matters in busy offices around Westlands, shared student hostels and family living rooms where children and pets cross the cable. The magnet also lines the tip up on its own, so you can connect it in a dark room during a power cut without fumbling.
Who should buy the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable if you own a 2012 to 2017 MacBook Air or MacBook Pro with a MagSafe 2 port and want to charge it from a modern USB-C charger. Students, writers and office staff keeping a reliable older MacBook will get the most from it. Skip it if your MacBook is from 2018 or later, because those charge over USB-C or MagSafe 3. Owners of pre-2012 machines need an original MagSafe charger instead.
Does the UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable charge at full speed?
The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable carries up to 85W over USB-C Power Delivery 3.0, which covers every MagSafe 2 MacBook's original charging rating. Actual speed depends on the charger you pair it with and how hard the laptop is working. At Mascom International, we're seeing customers pair it with one higher-wattage USB-C charger that also tops up their phone and tablet overnight, which cuts down the number of bricks in a work bag.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Power Delivery
- Converts USB-C Power Delivery into MagSafe 2 — lets an older MacBook draw power from modern USB-C chargers and power banks.
- Up to 85W power rating — matches the highest charger rating Apple shipped for MagSafe 2 MacBooks, so every model is covered.
- USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 support — the charger and cable agree on the right voltage before power flows to the laptop.
- Charging speed follows your charger — a charger matching the original rating charges at normal speed, while a weaker one slows charging.
- One-way charging cable — it powers the MacBook only; it does not carry data, video or file transfers.
Compatibility and Supported Devices
- MagSafe 2 port MacBooks from 2012 to 2017 — covers MacBook Air and Retina MacBook Pro models that use the slim magnetic port.
- 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Air — models of this period originally shipped with a 45W MagSafe 2 charger.
- 13-inch and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro — originally paired with 60W and 85W chargers respectively; match your charger to these.
- Not for original MagSafe, MagSafe 3 or USB-C MacBooks — pre-2012 machines and 2018-onward models use different charging ports.
- Works with USB-C PD wall chargers, car chargers and laptop-grade power banks — any source that offers suitable Power Delivery output.
Build and Durability
- 2m cable length — reaches from a wall socket behind a desk to a sofa, bed or conference table comfortably.
- Nylon braided jacket — resists fraying and kinking far better than the thin rubber sleeve on many original chargers.
- Magnetic MagSafe 2 tip — snaps free when the cord is pulled hard, protecting the laptop and the charging port.
- Self-aligning magnet — the tip finds the port on its own, which helps when connecting in poor light or during blackouts.
- Standard USB-C plug at the charger end — fits any USB-C charger socket, so you can replace the charger without replacing the cable.
Inclusions and Ownership
- The cable ships in UGREEN's sealed retail pack — one 2m USB-C to MagSafe 2 cable, ready to use.
- No wall charger included — pair it with a USB-C Power Delivery charger sold separately at Mascom International.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- In-store testing — bring your MacBook to Kimathi Street and confirm the cable charges it before paying.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties — inspect the sealed pack on delivery, then pay in cash or by M-Pesa.
Package Contents
The UGREEN US519 USB-C to MagSafe 2 Charging Cable arrives in UGREEN's sealed retail packaging with the 2m braided cable inside.

If you need one, compatible USB-C PD chargers are sold separately at Mascom International, and our staff can match the wattage to your MacBook model in the same order.
